Sometimes

a coward's true feelings

Sometimes, it feels that i am the darkness

which lives in the heart of devils

Sometimes, i think that my love

is just a packaging

and inside hatred is wrapped as a surprise

Sometimes, my body shivers with such a force

upon confronting people of low brain

that i abuse them with every sense of my being

Sometimes, i wait for the moment of death

and pray for my life to be over

Sometimes, a ray of light shines on me

and returns home all black and dull

Sometimes, i cry feeling the loss of self

and my giver and crave for a hug 

inspired by truth and nothing else

Sometimes, my dreams seem to be the place to live

and reality to run from

Sometimes, i watch children and find them to be

a waste of life..like me

Sometimes, my inner being wish for bad things

to happen to me and people around me

Sometimes.....

Some of the most authentic writing I've read in 2021 here at the cafe! As I read each one of your examples, I thought: "I've felt that way before!" You use strong details that paint a picture in the reader's mind of how this feels. Humans are basically dark & ugly by nature . . . most of us have to work at being upbeat & agreeable. That's why this world is such a mess, in my humble opinion. Not enuf control these dark tendencies which you describe with pin-prick accuracy (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Wow...this kind of poetry makes me think of balance...not everything in life is wonderful...sometimes can lead to a way of life at times, things can seem so brutal in this realm...powerful piece Gaurav...
